About

The College & Career Readiness initiative intends to help Southmont students gain the necessary employability skills to be successful after high school – whether that be at a four-year college, two-year college, vocational school, the United States Military, or as a direct member of our workforce.

Through a variety of hands-on activities, guest speakers, events, workshops, and more, students will gain and develop the soft skills employers are looking for while also gaining exposure to a variety of careers and post-secondary options. It is our goal that every senior crosses the stage at commencement with a commitment to a college or career pathway.

Our College & Career Readiness Coach, Mrs. Samantha Cotten, is available to help Southmont students with any specific needs – including applications, resumes, scholarships, interview prep, college decisions, job searches, etc. Click here to contact Mrs. Cotten.
